We herein report the case of a curatively resected solitary inguinal lymph node metastasis from cecum cancer. Our patient was a 67-year-old male with cecum cancer with abdominal wall invasion. Three years after surgery, inguinal lymph node swelling was detected by a computed tomography examination. Further examination revealed no other metastases. Surgical resection was performed to remove the lesion, and microscopic examination revealed that cancer cells had metastasized. No recurrence was detected 3 years after the salvage surgery. Inguinal lymph node metastasis of cecum cancer has not been reported in the literature, but in our case salvage surgery resulted in a good outcome.
我们在此报告一例经根治性切除的盲肠癌合并腹股沟淋巴结转移。患者男性，67 岁，因盲肠癌合并腹壁侵犯行手术治疗，术后 3 年，因腹股沟淋巴结肿大行 CT 检查发现，进一步检查未见其他转移灶，行手术切除，显微镜下发现癌细胞转移，行挽救性手术后 3 年未发现复发。文献中未见盲肠癌合并腹股沟淋巴结转移的报道，但本病例经挽救性手术后取得了良好的结果。
